Hey everyone! Long time no see.
I've been suuuuper busy this semester, which is really no excuse for not posting on my blog for such an extended period of time, but I'm trying to make an effort to start again.
I am back with a post on my current makeup bag. While I am definitely not low-maintenance, I don't think that I have too much in my bag.
The first thing that is in my makeup bag is the Etude House Precious Mineral Magic Any Cushion in Magic Peach. This is a very moisturizing cushion foundation that I normally use throughout the day. It doesn't have too much coverage, so I tend to use a different foundation when I first apply makeup, but it is a good one for touch-ups.
The second item in my pouch are my Kai Compact Eyelash Curlers. My eyelashes tend to droop by the end of the day, despite how waterproof my mascara is. I curl my lashes if I think that they need a little lift, and I like how compact they are in comparison to conventional eyelash curlers.
The third and fourth items in my bag are my eyeshadow in Like Sunset by the brand Aritaum, and a mini brush by Lancome that I got in a travel makeup set. I usually have very casual, natural makeup, so if I'm going out later in the evening, I add a little more eyeshadow. It's not overly-pigmented, so it's hard to go overboard, and the bronze color is very sultry yet natural.
The next eye product in my bag is the Innisfree Gel Liner in Sunset Burgundy. I don't wear eyeliner on a day-to-day basis, so this is also for when I want to amp up my makeup for the evening. The subtle purple/burgundy shade goes well with the bronze eyeshadow mentioned above.
The last makeup items in my bag are lip products. First, I have the Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry Me. The baby lips are already extremely popular, so I don't have much to say. Sadly to say, I am almost out and it's a shame that you can't get hold of this in Korea, because the sheer red color and moisturizing formula makes it extremely comfortable to wear. I also have a Mamonde Volume Better Shine Gloss in Red Tree. It is a sheer, red gloss with a bit of shimmer running through it. Although I don't normally like shimmer in lip products, it is not chunky or glittery at all, and goes well with the summer weather.
Other products in my makeup bag include a Hand & Nature Sanitizer Gel in Almond and Hand & Nature Hand Cream in Lily, both by Nature Republic. I bought both products on a whim, but have been enjoying both. The hand cream is moisturizing but not at all sticky, and the hand sanitizer is compact.
I also keep a pot of L'occitane Shea Butter for extra dry parts of my skin, such as my lips and cuticles.
Speaking of dry skin, I have a sample tube of Espoir's Aqua Miracle Oil Gel. It is great as a hydrating primer, but I also use it on top of makeup on dry parts of my face, such as around my mouth and chin. I am almost out, and will definitely be purchasing the full-sized version. Also for my dry skin, I have a small pot of Physiogel Cream. I am not a huge fan, as I think it is too heavy for my skin, but I use it on the dry parts of my skin throughout the day.
Other essentials in my bag include a couple of wet wipes, bobby pins and hair ties.
Phew. I guess I do keep quite a few things in my bag, but I assure you that they are all essentials. I hope you enjoyed today's post and I will be back on Wednesday with a new one!
